Is there a way to flash a boot.img from recovery without a computer?

Question

Is there a way to flash a boot.img on your SD card without having to connect to a PC?

Is there an equivalent of the fastboot command?

I'm on a HTC Amaze 4G currently.

HTC Amaze 4G, no S-Off, it flipped to S-On on recently trying to install a new ROM. No luck yet. I've also tried fastboot in the terminal of TWRP recovery, but it says fastboot -> no such command. — Androidian, Oct 18 '12 at 17:31
From what I understand now, it seems I won't be able to flash anything without S-Off, I'll try that and see if maybe fastboot then becomes available. — Androidian, Oct 18 '12 at 17:38

Once you have S-OFF you should be able to flash a custom recovery. Just flash one that supports IMG files, such as ClockworkMod (ROM Manager).

I was able to install 4ext, with S-On still active. – Androidian Oct 18 '12 at 20:56
Yes that is possible, but flashing roms through recovery will not flash the boot.img due to S-ON status. boot.img has to be flashed through fastboot via pc. See my previous comments for the command to be used from your computer terminal/command-prompt. – varunyellina Oct 20 '12 at 16:28
